Thanks a lot for your help. I really appreciate it. ---

Assuming it is the 2016 model they should be discounting loads with the totally new one just around the corner. ---

Thats a good deal, best you’ll see for An A5 that is obviously a premium plus, tech package metallic paint and most likely a sport package too. Roughly $4000 under invoice in addition to the $750 rebate. MF is super cheap and yes residual is soft because of the new model around the corner. Good going, I’d pull the trigger on that deal. ---

NO. Does not meet the 1% MSRP test. Payment is too high. Should be closer to 430-450. ---

Thanks a lot all for your replies. I really appreciate it. @vhooloo : Can you please let me know the !% MSRP test. For this car MSRP is 49925 and agreed price is 43000. Thank you so much all for your inputs. ---

> [@vhooloo](#): > > NO. Does not meet the 1% MSRP test. Payment is too high. It’s $3 over… There are other factors to consider before deciding if it’s a good deal or not. I see this deal and recognize that there is a poor residual and no incentives, but a hefty discount from MSRP. Given that, and the fact that it is pretty close to 1%, I’d call it a good deal. > [@psarathy](#): > > an you please let me know the !% MSRP test. Generally, a monthly payment for 1% of the MSRP is a great deal. There are other factors to consider of course. ---

A month ago broker offered fully loaded S-line A6 for $500 a month nothing down tax included. So I would say no it’s a bad deal. ---

For me, the 1% test includes drive offs…so in this case the monthly equals about $529…really not too bad. I’ve leased a lot of Audis…and it’s really hard to get to that 1% mark.
